@Bedders was your source of release info the Metro, which seems to think that buying the 3ds version will allow you to play the game on your WiiU (as opposed to simply controlling the WiiU version), and also that the yoshi bug involves making *yourself* big, not the CPU opponent Reply0

This is a benefit of the device's new eye-tracking capability that tailors the 3DS' parallax technology specifically to where you're looking from, enabling the effect to work from a far wider range of vision.

The result works a treat, and allowed me to lean over and watch my Monster Hunter partners on their own screens from over their shoulder in 3D.

hold on, how is this thing tracking your eyes AND the players eyes. Would it not screw the 3d for the player if his mate was watching over his shoulder? Is it not just improved screen tech instead of a tracker which would demand more processing power from the system? Reply+32

@TPoppaPuff maybe I should have said 'complex/lifelike 3d polygon games'. Mario games go for simplicity which has far fewer polygons and looks better to boot. For example I'd love a new Ghouls n Ghosts game in 3d that used the rounded cartoony art style of either mario 3d land or even pullblox. Never gonna happen though. Reply+2

…which will no doubt run at between 15-20fps. The insistence on creating 3D polygon games really is harming creative vision in the past few years (on handhelds at least). I'm playing through Castlevania 3DS at the mo - it has potential but would be so much better if they'd just gone with a flashier version of the art style from the DS games. Reply+2

As much as I support equality in gaming, this article really is a step too far. It was a single demo with a single hostage. There weren't several scenarios depicted that all contained female hostages. You wouldn't say it's sexist if it was a bloke hostage, so why because it was a female? Because of the reason given? That's irrelevant - all that matters is the result.

By continually nitpicking on every minor infringement you see and publishing it like it was some big deal you are actually doing your cause harm. All you are doing is pissing people off for the wrong reasons. Reply+35
